The latter will feed a guide-eyepiece and two guest-eyepieces simultaneously and is served by an access-platform large enough to accommodate several observers, integrated in the telescope mounting itself: it was these design features which dictated the choice of altazimuth mounting geometry.

With a telescope that rides on an altazimuth mounting, such as a Dobsonian, no effort will be required to maintain this orientation, but with an equatorially mounted instrument it will be necessary to adjust the alignment of the eyepiece periodically.
